    "Free trolley and local vehicle transport is free for locals and visitors and makes transportation easy throughout the city, but influx of visitors in warmer months heavily impacts traffic. As a local, riding a bike is easier to get around in than a vehicle when it’s 68° or above."

    "Laguna has a lot of charm, good food and shopping, a variety of coffee shops/cafes, and mostly friendly people. Overall dog friendly but public spaces like side walks, grassy areas, and roads could be better (and the city is slowly but surely updating). "

    "Many families in the area, good schools. Community is rather safe for kids. But mainly the streets aren’t always safe as there are many bad and reckless drivers that come through laguna. That would be my greatest concern as a parent in Laguna. Driver’s education and safety for pedestrians and cyclists "
